The IHE Journey To Date… University of Cincinnati, University of Dayton, The Ohio State University & Wright State University TPA State Conference, November 10, 2010
Beginning the Journey • Spring 2009 ~ Introduction to PACT/TPA • Summer 2009 ~ Alignment of Ohio Standards for the Teaching Profession and intro to faculty/clinical faculty • Fall 2009 ~ Winter 2010 – webinars, meetings, and prep for spring pilot
Pioneers and the Smoke Test Sampling the Spring Cuisine… • Appetizers included: • Elementary Literacy • Elementary Mathematics • Secondary Mathematics • Secondary English/Language Arts • Secondary Science
Local “Smoke Test” Insights… • Candidates noted the suggested writing amounts were a bit lofty (5-8 pgs). • Insights gained from the candidates were positive and extensive from the tasks. • Rubric improvements noted by some faculty.
Lessons Learned • Suggestion – include Gifted as well as ELL as special learners to target with assessment task. • MCE candidates used elementary tasks for grades 4-6 and secondary tasks for 7-9. • Programs will need content methods faculty engaged in the preparation process for this assessment (vs. Praxis III not content specific).
Beyond the Oregon Trail • Stanford University TPAC Team Meeting ~ August 2010 Development of Timeline
Plans for the Extended JourneyFall 2010 • Sept. 2010 ~ Accelerated IHEs pilot full assessment; pilot communications to SUED/OAPCTE • Oct. 2010 ~ OCTEO presentation at Preconference • Nov. 2010 ~ State Conference
2010-2011 Plans • The 4 Pilot Universities will complete the full assessment process: • Planning Instruction & Assessment • Instructing Students & Supporting their Learning (video clip) • Assessment on Student Learning New Content to be added: History/Social Sciences and soon Special Education/EC Special Education and Early Childhood
Projected Assessments… Early Childhood 109 Elementary Literacy 5 Middle Childhood 73 (various subjects ele/secondary) Secondary English/Language Arts 26 Elementary Mathematics 6 Secondary Mathematics 77 Secondary Science 67 Secondary Social Sciences/History 26 TOTAL . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 389
Jan. 2011 – Feb. 2011 • 4 Accelerated IHEs continue to pilot full assessments • Other IHEs begin to pilot a task • Trainer of Trainers through Stanford Team (2 per assessment area) ~ Accelerated IHEs
March 2011 – Dec. 2011 • Feb/March ~ State scorer training • June-Aug. ~ Review data as a state group • Sept. ~ Orient faculty & candidates in preparation for field test in all subject areas for IHEs • Not high stakes until 2013 ~ may or may not include all subject areas yet
Jan. 2012 – Dec. 2012 • Late Jan/Feb ~ Trainer of Trainers for scoring (Phase II IHEs) • Feb/March ~ state scorer training • June – Aug. ~ Review data as a state group. Look at policy and program implications. • Fall 2012 ~ Full implementation for all IHEs
Spring 2013 – Fall 2014 • Spring 2013 ~ full scale data collection with program completers • Data included in licensure decision? • Summer 2013 ~ Review/Revise per need for continuous improvement • Fall 2013-Spring 2014 ~ Year Two full implementation. High Stakes begins! • Summer 2014 ~ Review/Revise per need for continuous improvement • Fall 2014 ~ Residency Assessment (Tier II) launched at Year Three of Resident Educator Program?
Phase II Implementation • Phase II: Engaging Other IHEs: • November 10th State TPA Conference • Distribution of MOUs Post the Conference • Distribution of Tasks to IHEs • Pilot (II) Planning or Assessing tasks – Jan-June • (“smoke test” –Part II) • Videotape Preparations (policy/implementation) • IRB Approval Needs • TPA website development (ORC launch)
Possible Implications • Ability to have a common expectations ofpreservice teacher • performance assessments across districts and states • Ability to compare proficiencies among Ohio’s Teacher • Preparation Institutions through the use of metrics • (House Bill 1) • Possible follow up TPA assessment during the third year of • the Teacher Residency Program (Tier II) • Provide a inservice feedback loop to IHEs about candidate • performance as practicing educators
